We had The Wiener Dog Nationals circled on our calendar. Held at the Phoenix Greyhound Park (third annual), it?s an event in which dachshunds compete in ?races? to benefit Arizona Adopt a Greyhound. Last year, I had a lot of pictures on a former blog, but tonight the videos will do it even greater justice. It?s fun to watch these crazy-legged little animals run their hearts out. We were introduced to the event last year when my wife met the owner of Squirt (her name is J.D. Ecker) outside a supermarket. She was raising money for her guy to race and that led us to head down to the park. In this video montage, Squirt is the sweet dachshund who is wearing a hot dog bun. He?s difficult to miss. The timing was a little off as the monsoon rains came shortly after the first heat. The races are interspersed throughout the night between the greyhound heats. I will not watch the "real" dog races; the concept gives me the willies.
